My newsserver didn't even show maxmikes' post. I was curious, and looked
it up on groups.google.com, and there I saw it from March 12th, answered
the very next day by Silvio, and his answer seemed pretty plausible.

Since no one seems to have seen the answer (maybe except the OP, as he
didn't come back), this was it:  "A missing slash in there somewhere?"
